Which is the southernmost range of the Himalayas?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Shiwalik

The Himalayas are commonly divided from north to south into three parallel ranges: Himadri, Himachal, and Shiwalik. Himadri, or the Great Himalaya, is the highest and northernmost range. Himachal, or the Lesser Himalaya, lies south of it. Shiwalik, also called the Outer Himalaya, is the lowest and southernmost range. This order is the key to answering the question.

The correct choice is C, Shiwalik. Moving from the high inner Himalaya toward the plains, the sequence is Himadri, Himachal, and then Shiwalik. Karakoram is a separate high mountain system to the north and is not the southernmost Himalayan range. The word “southernmost” means the range closest to the northern plains among the three main Himalayan divisions. Therefore, Shiwalik is the correct answer, and it should be remembered as the Outer Himalaya.
